Get first bar of the day low/high

  Hello,

  I am trying to get the first bar of the day high and low, and I want it excluding premarket, so the bar from 930.

  I want to have 5 minute and 15 minute charts.

  I tried using the DateToBarIndex but I cannot use string concatenation to turn the current date + 930.

  I tried using IntradayBarIndex which may work but I cannot find a way to determine how many to go back reliably.

  I could do a for loop and go back in time until I find a bar at 930 but I feel there must be an easier way.

  Anyone have any ideas?

  Thanks!

  There you go:

  If time = 093000 then MyHI = high MyLO = low Endif Return MyHI as “high”,MyLO as “low”

  1 2 3 4 5

  If time = 093000 then    MyHI = high    MyLO = low Endif Return MyHI as “high”,MyLO as “low”

  you may replace Time with OpenTime, if needed.

  You can use in on both the 5-minute and 15-minute TF’s.
